Show Me...Show Me My Vote Counts For Something

Why are we, the U.S.A. in such a mess? Why do we keep giving away money to other countries that wouldn't help us if we need it? Why do we keep importing from China? Why do we keep out sourcing our jobs out to countries overseas? Why???? Why????

How do we know who to vote for in November? Whomever we put in office will only show their true colors once they are in office. They are .....they think they're telling us what we want to hear to get our vote. All I hear are attacks on one another and not the real issues that will get them elected. Tell me what you're going to do about thousands of people losing their jobs to out sourcing. What are you plans to stop giving these businesses tax breaks? You want to help the amercian people, well, tell me how you're going to do this.

Are you going to rush us into another war without thinking about us.. the amercian people, about our sons, our daughters, fathers, husbands? We want a stop of all this free money that you in Washington think should go to everyone in the world except us... the american people....hell, it's our money anyway. We, the amercian people need to stand up and tell you people in Washington...One Term in office. You have these so called elected officials that get power hungry and want to stay in office and not have the balls to stand up and say''Enough Is Enough'', how can we keep spending their money and still have people going to bed at night hungry, have no where to stay.

So, give me the facts, show me what YOU are going to do once you get my vote. I don't want your personal views to influence your decicisons about abortion, the war, how to spend OUR MONEY. Your personal views is just that...PERSONAL. You have to think about ALL THE PEOPLE, just not the ones who say abortion is wrong. Me, I never had one, but I feel like it's MY CHOICE not yours. So, tell me how you are going to keep your campaign promises once you get in office without pissing your so called party off. Show me that whomever I vote for is finally going to do what's right for our great country and our people, show me.. show me something so I can finally be proud to say'' hey, I voted for him'', I helped put this man in the White House. Show Me

What A Crock?????

$700 Billion dollar bailout, yes, you heard right BILLION.

This is way to crazy, we have to bailout more companies that screwed us and their shareholders. Why do we have to help them out? We have people losing their homes and their jobs and we are supposed to keep giving these people money.

President Bush is to blame just like these people in charge are. He will go down in history as one of the worst Presidents in history. His it's my way and that's it attitude is what's wrong with him trying..yes, trying to run this great country of ours. He is failing badley. If anyone needed impeachment in his term it's him.

He wants Congress to pass this bailout without any rules or inquires about why and how this bailout is to help the american people and our economy. He just wants to hand over $700 Billion to U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson without any restrictions applied to the money.

They are trying to scare us and Congress to just giving the money away. I love what Rep. Joe Barton, R-Texas said '' Just because God created the world in seven days doesn't mean we have to pass this bill in seven days''. LOVED IT.

Like I said ''What a crock''.

A Fun Day @ the Zoo











Blessings. I had a really fun day at the zoo yesterday. I have been living here in Virginia Beach, Va. for 18yrs and that was the first time I went to the zoo in Norfolk, Va.








I went with a friend of mine(my son's girlfriend), and a little two year old named Luke(my friends roommates son). I felt just like a little kid, I didn't know what to go see first. I wanted to see the tigers, lions, giraffe. I was like a wide eyed kid, but with a camera.








Can you believe that I took 122 pictures, I mean, wow. It didn't seem like it was that many. I didn't get to see the tigers and some of the hoofed animals because they are doing construction to that exhibit, but, come on, 122 pictures was enough wasn't it. Nah, I will go back there and take more pictures, because I just loved it. Terese and I talked and she told me that as much as I loved animals I should volunteer.








That is something I'm going to check into because I would really love to do that. So, I hope you enjoy the pictures of some of those beautiful animals that I saw.

What would you choose to take?

You have two days to pack up and leave your home, a hurricane is on the way, what would you take.

That is a very good question. You have soooo much stuff that you think is really important, so now what. Do you take the family photos off the wall? How about that tomb and it's mummy that your son made in school, do you choose to grab that? How about that folder full of awards and certificates that the boys got while in school?

How do you pick which memories to save and which ones gets to be destroyed? I have thought about that since Hurricane Ike destroyed so many homes and so many memories. You never really think about the stuff you have hiding in the closest or put in the attic or stashed away in the rafters of the garage.

I know that the most important thing is to have your family moved out of harms way, but in a way these things are your family. These are what your sons made for you and what they did for themselves while in school. If I had two days I would search my attic grab a few treasures from their school days, grab the pictures off the wall, grab my albums, grab some memories to take with me. I would want to of them to survive...wouldn't you.

Choices we make

Choices we make, can with live with them later after they're made. We have to make choices everyday, what we wear,what we eat for breakfest,where we live,work. Some choices are made in haste,while some are well thought out.

Our choice for our President must be well thought out. I think they were done with haste. I think Hillary would have been the better choice, but her party chose Obama. While the other party went with McCain, who it older..yes.....but to me way to old. Why do we keep electing people who will put their views before the people that they were elected to serve? I have learned over the years that it doesn't matter what we, the people want or need.

We chose to leave England for freedom for many things but I think we are worse off now in some ways than before. In some ways the choices we make comes back to bite us in the ass,...look at what's going on now with our country. We chose Bush who is as power hungry like no one that I have ever seen before. He wants to be seen as almighty, as I can do anything I want to do and he has because people chose to put him in office.

Can we make the right choice this time around when the time comes around? I don't think we can given who we have running. Choices, we make them everyday whether they're right or wrong. So, I am choosing... to wait and see... if and when people will wake up from their cult like following of Obama and from their poor choice of McCain to do what is best for our country. Choices...we live with them everyday.
